yeah, just starters... hell couldnt even fill that out lol

i had 1.75 left w/ no kicker, i was gonna try and change a few things to get a kicker but forget

was planning on selling my #2 WR Lance Moore at 14.73 and picking up a cheaper WR in the 5-8 buck range who I felt was good value... had my eyes on Smith (giants fan here), Hixon (same thing lol), or more likely Burleson or Heyward-Bay... I actually had Burleson originally when i was first deciding who i wanted, sold him because i was still playing around w/ salary to get all the pieces to fit right, and meant to come back to him... then i was going to use the remaining bucks to pick up a kicker

i just have a gut feeling forgetting to do that is going to come back and bite me [Reply]

not to mention Moore sucked it up anyway and Burleson got 7.6 more points then him... add that to say the 8 points i could have gotten from a kicker, and this thing absolutely would have been locked up (was actually looking at Carney as my kicker, he had 9 points this week, so it would have been 1 more point lol) [Reply]

I had both Brees and Peterson. Good thing I had them, my TE Fasano sucked and my WR A. Gonzalez, is hurt now... [Reply]

I tried, but couldn't make it work to get Brees. I should wish I would have now. [Reply]

Anyone tempted to sell Peterson? Good Lord has his value taken a huge jump sitting at 65.74, I know the guy is unbelievable but thats almost 33% of your entire teams budget spent on one player. [Reply]

I just did. He was taking up a huge chunk of my team. I know he is the best running back in the league, but if I release him and it helps me get another stud RB and QB. He is worth $23.27 more than the next running back, MJD. I think it's worth it. [Reply]

Yeah Im torn, Ive got Peterson and while hes an absolute stud I could also sell him and replace him with Clinton Portis and then add Greg Jennings to WR over Mario Manningham but at the same time, its Adrian Peterson, lol.

EDIT- By the way, and I probably shouldnt be saying this as it will only work to raise his value before I buy him, but Im absolutely shocked that Portis' value has dropped 1.13 just today even though hes going against St Louis who made Julius Jones look like a Pro Bowl RB just last week. Throw in the fact that he goes against Detroit next week and youve got a good, solid play for the next 2 weeks basically. [Reply]

So Im digging this up as I was curious who was going to take a chance this week at one position so they could grab Peterson at a discount since hes on a bye? I had Drew Brees but considering outside of 2 huge games, hes been anything but spectacular I gambled and took Matt Cassell this week and stashed Peterson on my bench for next week. Anyone else doing something similar? [Reply]

I've rode AP all season long but with my budget situation I had to sell him.

I'm happy with my backfield tandem of DeAngelo Williams and MJD but I know getting rid of Adrian will come back to bite me if I can't get him back next week, and there is a good chance of that happening considering I'm not home when the trading floor opens. That has affected so many of my decisions through the course of the season.

I still have Brees too but you are right about him only having 2 really great games. [Reply]

Williams and MJD are a pretty solid backfield though, I had Thomas Jones and Ronnie Brown, lost money on Jones thanks to his bye and sold Brown. While I like Brees, he hasnt been as explosive this year and when there are guys selling for 10.00+ less then him and are doing nearly the same or better then Brees then I have a hard time keeping him. Whats your team value? Im at 233.88 and I fluctuate between 235.00-255.00 normally as I will peak late in the week and then drop back down Tuesday by the time I get to the PC to make my changes.
